Since writing the last blog post, I have finalised the staff questionnaire and nine diamond nine for learners. I know that my enquiry will not be over by the time of the final submission for the purposes of this course, and that’s ok. I have allowed myself to not feel pressure to be ‘finish’ and to remember that the impact on the learners and staff is the important part, not the final outcome for our learning festival in June. In fact, I feel that this is an issue that I will revisit and revise each year to ensure the best for my learners and the whole school community.

Questionnaires will be sent out to all the schools in my learning community this week and results will be collated. From that data, I will make an action plan for staff development for each participating school, perhaps even offering different CPD opportunities across the learning community. If you fancy a sneak peek it, you can be accessed here.

Pupil diamond nines and word cloud activities will be implanted over the next few weeks. I am also finalising the plans for our eTwinning Picnic project with teachers in the UK and in Europe. Exciting times ahead…..

Oh and I had a small win – parents night is fast approaching in one of my schools and teachers for the first time didn’t need a prompt to order interpreters to ensure our bilingual families get the best from their meeting. Progess!
